    Do you really have a need to inhibite prostaglandin synthesis in the brain? That's way too serious for me.

    The reason I asked was that somebody was looking for a small tin. That size is a bit small for what was being looked for. Thanks.

    The tampon is, of course, for bullet wounds. Can also be used as kindling or filtration.

    Interesting selection of kit. I have a "always with me" kit, which is slightly different, but serves a similar purpose. (getting my back end from a bad spot, to a less bad spot, quickly)

    4"x4" sterile gauze pads
    several plain ol bandages
    roll of electrical tape (millions of uses)
    bic lighter
    led mini flashlight
    leatherman
    a couple of iodine tabs for water purification
    small tin of asperin and advil

    This is in no way meant to be a "survival kit", but more of a "dammit where did I park the truck" kit...

    comments welcome.

    It could be that the purpose of your life is merely to serve as a warning to others.

    Rick there is no call for insults and cussing in foreign languages!!!


    1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
    2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

    That's a relief, as long as it's not for nose bleeds......

    It's for camouflage. In the northern climates use it to simulate and blend in with snow. In the southern climates use it to hide in cotton fields.

    The Tampon also makes good fire tinder as well as camo and bullet wounds!

    Thanks for the question ask me any more if you have any!
